Worry more
about your health than what you look like and you’ll start feeling better about
yourself as your health improves. drink more water, eat fresh, nutritious food,
move your body regularly, even if it’s just to stretch. learn to listen to your
body’s cues, eg. hunger/thirst/sadness/worry and deal with each one
appropriately. do not punish your body. slowly your mind will learn that your
body does not exist to be abused, it deserves your love and care and in time,
you will start treating it that way- I really needed this quote I haven't had proper meals in some time, shame on me!
If they don’t want to be
with you now, they will not want to be with you later on. You should not stand
at the doorway of any person and beg to be let in. You should never dig in your
chest, extract your heart and hand it bloody and beating to them, like a dog
offering up a possum to his master. If they wanted your heart, they would have
broken down the cage of your ribs to get at it.
See, love is the strongest
current, the greatest force, the heaviest mass that no one has ever been able
to measure. It does not see race, distance, age, disability, Love just is—it is all powerful and it is all
encompassing. You feel it like hurricane forced winds, 1,000 volts of
electricity, a billion newtons.
Love is powered by the heat
of the sun and the wax and wane of the moon. Once it is dead, once the sun has
cast a shadow over it, there is no reviving it. You can shine all the sun you
want on their heart, but if they do not love you there is no turning over that
engine. It is never going to come out of the shadows and wrap itself around
you.
No one is ever ‘ready’ to
love, but they know when they want to. If you offer up your heart like a big
bloody steak and someone shrugs their shoulders and says, “I am a vegetarian.”
You shouldn’t keep lingering on the borders of their life hoping that one day
they are going to roll over, start eating meat, and choose your heart to devour
first.
There are few people in the
world worth waiting for, worth standing around in the rain for. Most people are
not albino turtles—they are not that rare. That person you are waiting for is
not the great Russian Yeti, but yet you are spending your entire life
being young, and gorgeous, and talented waiting in a tree for him to come out
of hiding and into your trap.
I think it’s time you got
out of the tree, okay? I think it’s time you came down, okay? Down here to the
world of the living, where great people will take your heart, keep it in a
glass case, water it when it is wilting, feed it when it is peckish, put it to
bed when it is tired. Sure, you might miss the thrill of the hunt, the
excitement of the chase, but one day you’re going to look back and realize that
the only reason that Yeti kept letting you chase him, the only reason he didn’t
lose you in the forest all this time, was because you made him feel important,
special, wanted.
And you deserve to feel
that way too, you know?
You deserve it just as much
as anyone else.
Maybe even more than the
rest. ― Kristen Fiore A Tree
